The Da Vinci Genius Experience exhibition, which opened in Telliskivi, Tallinn, has quickly become a huge hit. The exhibition, which opened at the end of April, has so far attracted over 10,000 visitors. The exhibition space is filled with a 360-degree interactive presentation that presents Leonardo da Vinci as an artist, engineer, scientist, and genius.

The Da Vinci Genius exhibition is divided into scheduled visiting hours, with a maximum of 100 people per hour. “This is not a mass event. We want to offer every visitor a high-quality and immersive experience, and for this, the visit must be planned, and a ticket must be purchased in advance,” Linnar Viik emphasises.

He added that the exhibition is ideal for all types of visitor groups. “A visit to the exhibition is a great way to spend an inspiring day, whether it is a class trip, a family day or, for example, a joint visit with colleagues before a summer or strategy day,” says Viik.

“Personally, my favourite thing about the exhibition is how Leonardo da Vinci’s inventions have been transformed into playful experiences that you can explore, touch, and try out for yourself. It’s a joy to see children and adults experimenting and discovering new things. This connection between entertainment and knowledge, which attracts visitors of all ages, is, in my opinion, the greatest charm of the exhibition,” Viik reflects.

The exhibition features da Vinci’s most famous works in digital form, such as the Mona Lisa and the Last Supper, as well as his scientific and creative visions of nature, waves, and mechanics. They come to life in a particularly impressive way in the form of an experience exhibition like this. The Da Vinci Genius exhibition is open at the M-building in Tallinn’s Telliskivi until 30 October 2025.

The Da Vinci Genius Experience exhibition is open until October 31, 2025. Tickets for the exhibition can be purchased in advance here.
